Notice Title

Data Exchange - Digital Project Manager

Notice Description

The Digital Project Manager will help the Data Exchange project team get ready for the core beta work, which begins in April 2018. Additional information: Data Exchange aims to provide modern, flexible ways of moving data that deliver workable solutions for both DfE and system suppliers, whilst also helping to reduce the human effort associated with validating and moving data. Development is based on using the Agile delivery methodology, this allows the project to design, build and test the service (with end users) at the same time. The project is preparing to move into the core Beta phase in April 2018 and work is in hand to recruit a permanent Project Manager (PM) with the relevant digital and agile skills for Beta. Building on the work completed during the Alpha phase, a temporary experienced Agile PM with expert knowledge of existing data collection is required to help the project get ready for Beta. The project has chosen to use a single sourcing route, through an established compliant procurement framework to bring in this temporary resource.
